Para Toda Uma Humanidade

Nothing I can say could possibly do this documentary justice, but I'm going to try anyway. One of the greatest (in more than one sense) and most profound of human endeavors that has ever been undertaken is the effort at spaceflight. The most notable achievement is the landing and return of humans to the Moon. This documentary recaptures the awe and wonder I felt (and still feel today) when I watched the landing. Nominated for Documentary Feature, it should have won (or at least tied). As good as Common Threads was and is, for For All Mankind not to have won says more about the Academy and present-day society's fixation on now and its indifference to both yesterday and tomorrow. In a disposable society where creativity is less honored than timliness and for whom all too many, the past is what they had for breakfast, twenty years may as well be two thousand. Sic Transit Gloria (Thus Passeth Glory). Most, most highly RECOMMENDED!!!
